Rule for url in html-mail

[arno]

Hello,

Outlook XP SP3

how can I create a rule, that deletes spam-HTML-mails that contain in
the html-code a link to an URL eg. href='http://www.infoweb-email.net.
I have already tried some types of rules without success (the sender's
address changes every few days, however, the link is always the same).

regards

arno

Start with a blank rule (so not based on a template) and set the condition
to "with specific words in the message"

Hi Roady,

Start with a blank rule (so not based on a template) and set
the condition
to "with specific words in the message"

this does not work, no matter if I use a template or not.

The "word" I am searching is *not* in the "text", it is an url of an
image of that mail - it is part of the HTML-Code and not of the text,
eg.:
<img src='http://www.infoweb-email.net/img.gif' width='531' height='80'
border='0'> etc,etc,etc

regards

arno

Rules don't scan HTML very well. You'd be better off using something like
